The beauty of death encapsulated and brought to new life

Energy could never be destroyed. It's just shifting its shape. It may halt or commencing to flow in- and into another direction. Or several...

And what about other dimensions? Who knows. When a soul perishes, it splits. Part of it rejoins the ever flowing life force and the collective soul that entangles our world from all directions and dimensions. It's timeless, bound to reincarnate and ascend.

Another part remains with the remains, and is bound to be part of our tangible world. That part sometimes finds its way into my hands: the hands of the skull artist. I bring it with me, the skull or carcass of a deceased being. I get to know her and find out who she was, what she wanted to be or what she desires to become. From there she rises from her grave and once again she is here among us to tell us her story...

On the 12th of December I will exhibit my skull art at the alternative Christmas fair "Midvinterglöd" (Midwinterglow) in Jättendal, Sweden. At Midwinterglow we are celebrating the winter solstice with tales and story telling from Swedish folklore and norse mythology with our musical show "folklore Lucia"

Yesterday was a big day for me as an artist! About a month ago SVT ( swedish national TV channel) paid me a visit in my new studio. They wanted to do an interview with me, talk about my journey with Skulls & Bones Artwork and yesterday the TV-program "Sverige!" was aired where I got to talk about my artwork, show my artwork, share my thoughts and my journey. What an awesome feeling it was to watch the show and realise I was in it :)

The end of our trip in London is getting near. We have had such a great time and I'm so inspired and full of energy for new creations and adventures when we get back home! London has for sure delivered and all the adventures we have been on have been so great!

Finally, Petra Shara Stoor opens her own gallery!On the 29th of June we will be opening the doors to Helsinglight Art Gallery for the first time. Welcome! Featured are the expressionistic acrylic paintings and eccentric taxidermy artwork by Petra Shara Stoor, artist and owner of Helsinglight Art Gallery.

15-16 of July I will exhibit my skull art at Gefle Metal Festival in Sweden. I'm really excited and honored to have been invited to this Metal festival and I'm looking forward to an awesome metal weekend! My skull art will be displayed at the indoor bar near the grand "Goat stage".

A while ago I got a custom order to work with, a beautiful red deer 🦌 skull that was delivered to me by the client. We’ve kept this a secret since it was a gift to her husband when he turned 50. This magnificent red deer was very special to them, born and bred on their farm, as close to tame as a red deer can be and they had named him Gustav.
Gustavo was described as magnificent, gentle, kind, stunning. I wanted to try to honor Gustavs spirit the best I could and this is the result. Today they came for a visit and the gift was handed over...they loved the tribute and work I had created. Happy customers, happy artist. Such a great moment ❤️ #skullsandbonesartwork #helsinglight #petrasharastoor #artwork🎨 #skullart #skullartist #art #artist #taxidermy #taxidermyartwork #taxidermist #skullsandbones #skullandbones #boneart #carvedbones

Monday 15th of October at 1:21 am our beautiful baby girl took her first breath and joined us in this world. Our hearts are overflowing with love and happiness ❤️ Today she is joining us at our Helsinglight Art Gallery where we’re exhibiting a collection of my taxidermy artwork.
Our little girl is such a star and she will be my
Muse when creating ❤️ Feeling inspired and creative already so It shouldn’t be too long til I’m back in my art studio (I hope 😝)! #skullart #taxidermyartwork #baby #babygirl #artist #art #artwork #artwork🎨
